Personal Tax Tip #56 When You Live in One State and Work in Another Personal Tax Tip #56 When you Live in One State and Work in Another If I am living in Maryland, but working in Washington, D.C., Pennsylvania, Virginia or West Virginia, how should my state income tax return be filed? You should file a resident income tax return with Maryland. Generally, taxpayers should file with the jurisdiction in which they live. If you live in Maryland, file with Maryland. If you live in Washington, D.C., Pennsylvania, Virginia or West Virginia, you should file with your home state. Maryland residents who commute every day to work in Washington, D.C., Pennsylvania, Virginia or West Virginia and have taxes withheld for that jurisdiction should file the appropriate form with that locality to obtain a refund. Maryland residents who work in any other jurisdiction on a regular basis should check with that government to determine their taxable status under that state's laws. If you live in Maryland and have income which is taxed in any other state, check Maryland Form 502CR to see if you are eligible for a tax credit. What if I live in Washington, D.C., Pennsylvania, Virginia or West Virginia and commute to Maryland and Maryland taxes are withheld by mistake? If you are a resident of Washington, D.C. or Virginia who works in Maryland, and you do not live in Maryland for more than six months during the calendar year, you are exempt from Maryland state income tax withholding on wages and salaries earned in Maryland. If you do live in Maryland for more than six months, you are considered a statutory resident and will need to file a resident income tax return with Maryland. If you are a resident of Pennsylvania who works in Maryland and you do not live in Maryland for more than six months during the calendar year, you may also be exempt. If you do live in Maryland for more than six months, you are considered a statutory resident and will need to file a resident income tax return with Maryland. However, if you do not live in Maryland for more than six months and are a resident of certain cities and townships in Pennsylvania who tax the salaries and wages of Maryland residents employed within their jurisdictions, you may have to file Maryland Form 515. For more information, see the instructions included with Form 515. If you are a resident of West Virginia who works in Maryland, you are exempt from Maryland income tax withholding, regardless of any length of time you live in Maryland. If you are exempt, but have had Maryland taxes withheld on wage or salary income earned in Maryland, you must use the following method to obtain a refund: Obtain nonresident Maryland Form 505 Complete all of the information at the top of the form through the filing status, resident information and exemption areas Enter your federal adjusted gross income on line 17 in both columns 1 and 3 and on line 24 Complete lines 43-48, 50 and 52. Attach the state copy of W-2s showing the Maryland tax withheld, and File a corrected Form MW507 with your employer. Be sure to complete line 4 of this form to stop the withholding of Maryland tax. What if I live in Maryland, but commute to work in Delaware? Taxpayers who live in Maryland and work in Delaware must file income tax returns with both states. To avoid dual taxation, you may get a credit for taxes paid to Delaware by completing Maryland Form 502CR. File Form 502CR with your Maryland income tax return, along with a copy of your Delaware income tax return. Do people who live in Wilmington, Delaware and work in Maryland face unique Maryland filing requirements? Yes, in addition to Wilmington, DE, certain cities and townships in Pennsylvania and eight other states tax the salaries and wages of Maryland residents employed within their jurisdictions. Residents of these jurisdictions who are employed in Maryland must file Maryland Form 515. .

  • Pennsylvania History
    PENNSYLVANIA HISTORY VOL. XXI APRIL, 1954 No. 2 THE FAILURE OF THE "HOLY EXPERIMENT" IN PENNSYLVANIA, 1684-1699 By EDWIN B. BRONNER* HE founding of colonial Pennsylvania was a great success. TLet there be no misunderstanding in regard to that matter. The facts speak for themselves. From the very beginning colonists came to the Delaware Valley in great numbers. Philadelphia grew rapidly and was eventually the largest town in the British colonies. The area under cultivation expanded steadily; Pennsylvania con- tinued to grow throughout the colonial period, and her pecuniary success has never been questioned. The Proprietor granted his freemen an enlightened form of government, and gradually accepted a series of proposals by the citizenry for liberalizing the constitution. As an outgrowth of the Quaker belief that all men are children of God, the colony granted religious toleration to virtually all who wished to settle, made a practice of treating the Indians in a fair and just manner, opposed (as a matter of conscience) resorting to war, experimented with enlightened principles in regard to crime and punishment, and fostered advanced ideas concerning the equality of the sexes and the enslavement of human beings. As a colonizing venture, the founding of Pennsylvania was a triumph for William Penn and those who joined with him in the undertaking. On the other hand, conditions which prevailed in Pennsylvania in the first decades caused Penn untold grief, and results fell far short of what he had envisaged when he wrote concerning the *Dr. Edwin B.
